MYSLF

EDP · Masculine · 2023

Bright bergamot opens it, sharp and a little bitter, like fresh peel. Then orange blossom takes over. It's soft and slightly soapy, more clean than sweet, and it carries most of the fragrance. Patchouli and Ambrofix sit underneath and give a dry, warm wood base with a faint salty edge. The white floral heart is quite loud in the first hour, so it can feel a bit much in a warm room. After that it settles close to the skin. Projection is moderate, and you'll still smell it after eight hours. Good pick for office days and dinners when you want to smell polished without heavy spice.
